- the university didn't reply to my email inquiry about the Commerce course Adam wanted to do, so I just called them up and they told me that once we get the application in, it'll only take them a few days to process and let us know! Also that it's highly likely that they'll accept him *and* give him credit for prior study! ALL GOOD THINGS
- I really struggled last night with redoing my resume so it looks like someone who wants to find a job in Administration and not Someone Who Doesn't Not Know What She Wants In Life, and to get it all into one page, but I kept at it, and it's almost all done, I just have to change some of the wording tonight, THEN IT WILL BE DONE. I have procrastinated this job for so long.
- Liam has a ride on car that he's had since he was 12 months old that he really loves and I bought Toby the same model when he was 12 months. Toby hasn't been tall enough or advanced enough to use it, just sitting on it while Liam dragged it around, but today he was tall enough, and zooming around with Liam and LIAM WAS ECSTATIC. Toby looked pretty pleased himself too.
- Liam is standing next to me now, reading what he can over my shoulder. 'WHAT ARE YOU TYPING ABOUT ME MUMMY' Oh dear. He's really been coming along with his reading, he's understanding that letters make sounds now and when I say a word he can generally tell me what letter it starts with (unless it's one of those blended sounds)
- I'm a little bit sad about missing out on this next chapter of their lives, but I AM SO READY TO GO BACK TO WORK NOW YOU HAVE NO IDEA. OMG ADULTS.
- I took the double pram out and pushed both boys to the bakery for lunch today because it was a lovely day. It's hilly around here, and omg I thought I was going to die. It was a total of 35kg that was fighting me the whole way, even downhill it kept wanting to roll onto the road, so I was pulling it while I was pushing it and I had to take breaks pushing it up a hill. That's my exercise for today, I think. But it was lovely, the boys sat nicely in their chairs and ate their lunch in the little street cafe setting :) I'll miss being able to do that too.
